Get a group together and avoid Noumea's crowded water taxis on this half-day catamaran journey. Departing Noumea, your boat sets sail for Escapade Island, crossing the world's largest lagoon on the way. Discover gardens of coral teeming with colorful reef fish and, if you’re lucky, meet giant clams and green sea turtles. Although many visitors to Noumea are content to snorkel from the shore, a boat allows snorkelers to see parts of the reef that most people miss.

Skid from your cruise ship to a bouncy water taxi and skip across the water to Signal Island, a quieter snorkeling location. Take your mind off National Park fees and taxes and focus on the important things: coral in blue water, the ponderous paddles of turtles. This small private tour gets you into the water without extra hassle.

Spend 7-nights cruising the Isle of Pines from Noumea aboard Abaca, a Helia 44-foot (13-meter) catamaran. This small-group tour will spend fruitful hours exploring lagoons and deserted islands, sunbathing on white-sand beaches, snorkeling coral reefs, viewing native wildlife, and visiting villages and towns throughout the region. Book the package inclusive of meals or not: It's your choice.
